Sofie Van de Velde brings a global perspective, deep sales expertise, and a disciplined, client-first approach to navigating New York City real estate. With more than a decade in the technology sector — from strategic alliances to IoT business development and enterprise software sales — Sofie has built her career on solving complex problems, managing high-stakes relationships, and delivering measurable results for her clients.

Holding a Master’s degree in Business Economics, she combines analytical thinking with practical execution. Her experience as an account executive and in strategic partnerships has honed her ability to negotiate effectively, interpret market dynamics, and guide clients through complex decisions with clarity and confidence. In real estate, this translates directly into smart pricing strategy, disciplined deal management, and a highly responsive, detail-oriented client experience.

Raised in Belgium and having lived in Mexico, Egypt, France, the Netherlands, Chicago, and New York, Sofie offers a truly international outlook. She has spent the past six years in New York City and knows the nuances of its neighborhoods as well as the challenges of relocating to the city. For international clients, she provides firsthand insight into the logistical and emotional aspects of moving across borders — ensuring a smooth, personalized transition every step of the way.

Sofie also draws from her personal experience buying, selling, and renting property, giving her a practical understanding of the process from every angle. She leverages digital tools to streamline transactions, maintain clear communication, and keep each step organized and efficient — all while keeping the client experience personal and supportive.

A former competitive gymnast from the age of five, Sofie brings discipline, focus, and resilience to every transaction. Outside of real estate, she enjoys cooking, skiing, Pilates, and exploring design, as well as raising her daughter in four languages — reflecting the global mindset she brings to both her life and her work.
